Our Homeownership Saga

When we first moved in, there were two “gardens” set up in the yard. The garden in the front yard is surrounded by stones and we plan on keeping it the way it is for now. While the garden toward the backyard was surrounded by planks of wood with some cheap wire fencing stapled around it. We had decided right away that it had to go since it made the yard seem a lot smaller by being in the way.

As you can see, it had been overrun with weeds for awhile. It took a bit to tear the stakes out of the ground, but it all came out in one piece. The wood was torn apart and we took a weed-whacker to all of the overgrowth. The area still has a lot of weeds that we will do more with next year along with the rest of the “grass” in the yard.
